dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable (/usr/bin/sudo) is setuid or setgid

You see that freaking message when you are going to do a "sudo".

In my case that was caused because I installed the xquartz (X11 server).

I managed to remove the xquartz  but the that freaking error appeared again and again..

Finally I removed the reference of that variable DYLD_.... that was into the:
/etc/profile

Problem solved!

MIST - Atari ST / Amiga fpga CLONE

Nice work there , I hope it will be a better project than the ill fated Commodore One (c-one)
For now is Amiga 500 and Atari ST, but the whole project looks very promising.  

7zip security hazard.

It seems there is a bug (still present on alpha v. 9.30 of 7zip).

When you open a password protected ,7z archive (it asks for the password, so far so good) then any time you add files (drag and drop) it does not encrypt with password these files.
This option works very well under the PeaZIP. Seems this program have ages to be updated..

Windows 8+10 and US keyboard layout (SDL bug).

I have to say I am pissed off, as some apps (see: fucking buggy SDL) adds the US keyboard layout.
Also, I just noticed, that some extensions of Firefox, add this layout too!

Well, I found a solution, in my case I m using the UK layout, so run the regedit then:

go to HKLM  > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control > Keyboard Layouts > 00000409

then edit the "Layout File" from KBDUS.DLL to KBDUK.DLL (or whatever is your preferable layout)

Print to PDF

Just avoid the  Pdfcreator,  as the setup includes freeware adware/malware.
DoPDF is -so far- a very nice PDF printer, without ads/nags/malware.

SDL bug(?)


I have to say that was a bit strange... from time to time I noticed a US keyboard layout on the language bar (under win8 pro x64). After a little tracking I discovered that it was caused by SDL applications (like a special SVN build of DOSBox, or viceSDL (c= emulator)).

Temp solution:

rename the 
HLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Keyboard Layouts\00000409 (ie the US) to 00000409a 

workaround is not working.. I still have the f* additional keyboard

UPDATE:

Its a BUG! (and I don't think it will be fixed soon... )
